I wear the fancy Asics, with a soft gel cup heel. I've also gone barefoot at home, and see no difference. Then again, at home I'm standing on a soft gym floor material. I also run after I lift, so it's easier to just finish lifting, then start running without having to switch shoes... Not allowed to wear barefoot at my gym either...

I have seen those foot gloves a few people at my gym wear, but if it's the same as barefoot I'll go with Chucks to save money..

when i got my chucks they were 2 for $40..what a steal! Ive done barefoot before and it works fine..but thinking about the crap thats on the floors at the gyms is pretty nasty. rather wear some footwear.
